CLAIM: Proman Capsule Can Completely Cure Prostatitis, Solve All Men’s Health Problems And Increase Longevity

CLAIM

A blog post claims that the Proman Capsule can completely cure prostatitis and solve all men's health problems, including erectile dysfunction and urinary issues, while increasing longevity. 

FULL TEXT

Prostatitis, according to the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP), is a common condition in men that can lead to urinary tract issues and pelvic discomfort. It is classified into four main types: acute bacterial prostatitis, chronic bacterial prostatitis, chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS), and asymptomatic inflammatory prostatitis.

The bacterial form of prostatitis are primarily caused by bladder infections or bladder stones, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), use of a urinary catheter, undergoing a prostate biopsy, prostate stones, urinary retention or blockage, urinary tract infections (UTIs), and injury to the pelvic area.

Complications of acute or chronic bacterial prostatitis can include bacterial infection of the blood (bacteremia), inflammation of the epididymis (epididymitis), formation of a pus-filled cavity in the prostate (prostatic abscess), and infections spreading to nearby bones or the spine.

Treatment for prostatitis varies depending on its type and may include antibiotics, alpha-blockers, anti-inflammatory agents, prostatic massage, pelvic floor physical therapy, lifestyle changes, acupuncture, and, in rare cases, surgery.

Amidst these varied approaches, a blog named Meduza, on August 6, 2025, published a post that Proman Capsules can completely cure prostatitis and resolve a range of men’s health problems, including erectile dysfunction and frequent urination.

Proman Capsules is produced by Exeter Pharmaceuticals and Progress Nutrition. According to these companies, the capsules are designed specifically for men and combine vitamins, minerals, and herb extracts to support overall health, vitality, and immune function. 

The blog post describes Proman Capsules as a “longevity formula” that guarantees a 100% cure for prostatitis and boosts all aspects of male health.

The blog post also features an endorsement of the capsule from a named doctor Kunle Adebayo, described as “the head of the Urology Department at the Emergency Clinical Hospital in Lagos, experts in medical sciences, the world's oldest general practitioner at 89 years old.

The post reads in part, “Just yesterday, our editorial team secretly published an interview with a Nigerian urologist who did not hesitate to expose the pharmaceutical mafia and reveal the secret to longevity and prostate health. This interview has already spread widely and is in demand. Pharmacy chain owners are removing it from all sources, so read it as soon as possible! (sic)”

The blog post also features pop-up prompts urging users to “click on one of the doors” to win a discount, claiming urgency through countdown timers and limited stock notices.

“Order Now! You will never have an opportunity like this again. You will regret missing it. It is impossible to know how long the program will last or how long there will be sufficient stock of Proman in Nigeria. Buy Proman now! The promotion will be valid between the following dates: May 14, 2025 – May 21, 2025. Try your luck! Click on one of the doors! Try to get Proman at a discounted price! (sic)”

Given the suspicion and health impact of the claim, we fact-checked it.

VERIFICATION

We looked up the website on WHOIS, a public database that stores information about domain names and IP addresses, and found that blog, named blog.bio-nutrabalance.com is invalid

We conducted a Google search of the Lagos Emergency Clinical Hospital online, but could not find anything about the aforementioned Hospital. However, Lagos State has 30 state-owned secondary health facilities and Lagos Emergency Clinical Hospital is not one of them. 

We also found that the named doctor is not the oldest doctor in the world. Howard Tucker, aged 102, a neurologist from Cleveland, Ohio, was named the “Oldest Practicing Doctor″ by Guinness World Records.

Given the suspicion around the named doctor, we analyzed the image using the Fake Image Detector, a tool for detecting manipulations in images. The result revealed that the doctor's image looks like a computer generated or modified image.

Result of the analysis on Fake Image Detector

Findings about Proman capsules show different websites advertising similar Proman products at the same price but with different ingredients, dosages, benefits, reviews, and doctors that do not exist.

Coupled with the fact that multiple brands were using a similar name but offering different ingredients in their products.

The image of a “doctor” supposedly endorsing Proman Capsules is a stock photo, not a verified medical professional, indicating the deceptive nature of the entire campaign.

The article claims that Proman can cure painful urination, pain in the groin area, and prostatitis. 

The site's manipulative strategies, such as countdown timers, gimmick interactions, “click the door to win”, and unverified discounts, meant to rush decision-making, are classic signs of scam marketing aimed at tricking users into making impulsive purchases without verifying the legitimacy of the product.

Can Capsules Treat Or Cure Prostatitis?

According to Healthline, an American website and provider of health information, no single capsule can cure prostatitis. Mayo Clinics, a private American academic medical centre mentioned that the disease has several causes, types and its treatment approaches vary accurately. How to manage the infection can be found here and here.

A urologist, specialised in prostatitis, Dr. Curtis Nickel, discussed prostate health in a podcast and the  various aspects of the condition including its treatment in a YouTube video. Nickel explained the diagnosis of prostatitis, highlighting the importance of a patient's history and the need for a tailored treatment plan. 

The American Urological Association, Urology care foundation notes that treatments for prostatitis may include antibiotics, intravesical treatments, and other options depending on the type of prostatitis. 

According to The National Institutes of Health (NIH), a US government agency, some supplements and medications may help manage symptoms, they do not cure the condition, and urologists rely on evidence-based treatments like antibiotics, alpha-blockers, and other therapies depending on the specific type and severity of prostatitis.

CONCLUSION

The claim that Proman Capsules cure prostatitis and improve all aspects of male health is MISLEADING and is NOT SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN. The website's use of fake urgency, discount tricks, and fabricated images and endorsements of a fake doctor are red flags typical of online health scams. No scientific or regulatory evidence supports the claim that Proman Capsules can cure prostatitis or other complex male health issues. Such claims contradict the current medical consensus and treatment guidelines for prostate-related conditions.
